Abstract
Finite element simulations of the fatigue crack growth are done. Using only the mechanical properties usually obtained in the tensile test as input data, we tried to predict the fatigue crack growth behavior. The exponent in the Paris law is determined and compared to the published one. Plotting with respect to the effective stress intensity factor range yields more consistent result.
